Alcavaneras, Urban beach in Las Palmas de Gran Canaria, Spain.

The 550-meter stretch of golden sand faces the Atlantic Ocean, bordered by the Real Club Náutico to the north and Muelle Deportivo to the south.

The beach received its name from the stone curlew birds that previously inhabited the coastal area before the urban development of Las Palmas.

Local sports enthusiasts gather at this beach for volleyball training sessions during winter months, while summer brings children's camps and community activities.

The beach provides year-round lifeguard service, public restrooms, showers, and designated areas with access ramps for individuals with reduced mobility needs.

The beach location between the city port and residential areas creates a mix of maritime activity, with views of both commercial vessels and recreational boats.
